If the price of the product is $8 per unit, the firm should produce O less than 100 units of output. O The amount is impossible to determine from the information given. O 100 units of output. O more than 100 units of output.

- The profit-maximizing quantity is the one at which the marginal revenue of the last unit was: O greater than the marginal cost. O less than the marginal cost. O equal to the marginal cost. O zero.Answer the following: 1. Assuming that the product’s price is P58 per pack, should the competitor sell in the short-runWhy or why not?If it decides to sell, what will be the profit-maximizing (or loss-minimizing output per day)?What is the profit (or loss) that the seller can realize per day? What is the profit (or loss) per pack?A. Assuming that the product price is P42 per pack, answer the same questions in letter A.B. Because of increasing sellers of masks in the market, the product’s price further decreased to P32per pack. Again, answer the same questions in letter A.C. When is this seller going to shut down?D. Now generate the seller’s supply curve of mask in the short run.Question 3 The current market price in a competitive industry is $15. Every firm in the industry operates a technology that implies costs described by the function C = 12.5 + 0.3Q2. In the future, the technology is expected to change, and the new cost function will then be C = 10 + 0.2Q2. How much profit is the typical firm making today and in the long run? O. Profit is zero both today and in the long run. O. Profit is 125 both today and in the long run. O. Profit is 175 today and zero in the long run. O. Profit is 250 today and 125 in the long run.
- Suppose you are a perfectly competitive firm producing computer memory chips. Your production capacityis 1000 units per year. Your marginal cost is $10 per chip up to capacity. You have a fixed cost of $10,000 ifproduction is positive and $0 if you shut down. What are your profit-maximizing levels of production andprofit if the market price is ( a ) $5 per chip, ( b ) $15 per chip, and ( c ) $25 per chip? For case ( b ), explainwhy production is positive even though profits are negative?Suppose that a perfectly competitive firm faces a market price of $7 per unit, and at this price the upward-sloping portion of the firm's marginal cost curve crosses its marginal revenue curveat an outpuut level of 1,400 units. If the firsm produces 1,400 units, it's average variable costs equal $6.50 per unit, and its average fixed costs equal $0.80 per unit. What is the firm's maximizing (or loss-minimizing output level? What is the amount of it's economic profits (or losses) at this output level?21. A long-run equilibrium in an industry exists when cost per unit is at its lowest possible level. O. there is only one firm in the industry. O. the size of the market remains constant. O. price equals cost per unit. O. price equals marginal cost. 22. A tariff imposed on a country as a penalty for dumping goods is called a(n) O. antidumping duty. O. quota tariff. O. ad valorem tariff. O. revenue tariff. O. dumping duty.
- Quantity Price 0 20 1 18 2 16 3 14 4 12 5 10 Are the price and quantity combinations above for a perfectly competitive industry? Select one: O a. No, they are not because the demand curve should be perfectly elastic. O b. No, because the quantities are too low. O c. Yes, they are because the demand curve is downward sloping. O d. Yes, they are because the price falls the same amount for each increase in quantity. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.The market demand for a type of good has been estimated as: P= 40 - 0.25Q, where Pis price ($) and Q is rate of sales per month. The long run market supply is expressed as: P 10.0 + 0.05Q. %3D There is a firm operating in this market that is characterized by following long run marginal cost: MC = - 20.0 + 5.0q What would be the return to firm specific advantage for this firm?

A. What would be the profit maximizing level of production if demand increased such that each unit sold for $130?, will the company make an economic profit producing this quantity of output? b: suppose the demand significantly decreased so that price for a unit of ouput sold to $115 each. What should the firm do? Why?
- 4. Assess which of the following is true and which is false.A firm’s profit equation is given by π = -100 + 160Q – 20Q2. Therefore,a) The firm’s fixed cost is 100.b) The firm’s fixed cost is 40 and variable cost is 20.c) Marginal profit is Mπ = 160 – 20Q.d) The firm’s profit-maximizing output is Q = 4.e) Marginal profit is Mπ = 160 – 40Q and it is positive for quantities that are lower than theprofit-maximizing quantity.Microsoft is the only business that sells Computer Operation System in the world. Assuming that Microsoft is maximizing its profit, which of the following statements is true? Select one : O a. Microsoft prices will be less than marginal cost. O b. Microsott prices will equal marginal cost. O c. Microsoft prices wil be a function of supply and demand and will therefore oscillate around marginal costs. O d.
